Venezuelan pro-Chavez rally marks missed inauguration

Crowds of supporters of Venezuela's Hugo Chavez have been rallying outside the presidential palace in Caracas, showing their backing for the cancer-stricken leader on the day he was due to be inaugurated for another term.

Supporters wearing red "I am Chavez" T-shirts waved flags as patriotic music blared from speakers.

The swearing-in ceremony has been indefinitely postponed.
